Britt King quotes
On not having starting guard Laura Garcia available
"One of the things we talk about is that everybody has to pick up and bring a little extra to the table since we only have seven or eight players and today since we didn?t have Laura there of course we had to pick up her assists, her points, everybody had to really step up and pick up everything that Laura normally carries for us. As far as production we didn?t miss much tonight."
On coming in with a three-game losing streak
"We had an opportunity to come back to the North Gym and this was a great opportunity and we just took advantage of it."
On the defensive strategy
"We tried to stay in a zone most of the game, but probably in the last four minutes of the game we had to go to a man after they hit those three point shots. They were basically better than us in the post area so if we had to give something up we were going to give up a two instead of a three."
About TCU's run towards the end of the game
I think that it was a matter of confidence, when they cut it to four everybody started playing with confidence. When we went into a full court press we threw them off. We went back to a half court press for awhile but when the game was on the line we just went back to our strength and our strength is pressing."\
